I'm a sophomore at UNC Charlotte, working towards my degree in Special Education with an expected graduation in 2026. My passion revolves around helping children with disabilities, and I aim to pursue a career in speech pathology. As a first-generation student, I have dreams of studying abroad in the fall of 2024 to immerse myself in different cultures.
